Busy Woman could rise higher, why would the superbowl song perform better then a just released track in the latter part of the week? Regardless of who gets it, just let it be a new number 1 come put winning.

Also 15 minutes at 16? It couldn't get 15 for 15?

I’m amazed that Kendrick is set to do even better next week than he did this week. 

Good to see him heading for a first #1 single and especially ‘All The Stars’ returning to the Top 10 nearly seven years after its release!
